Crockpot Chocolate Cake

I, along with thousands of other people, read cjane's blog on a daily basis. She posted this recipe at the end of one of her updates. We tried it last Sunday and I cannot fully describe to you how good it was. We ate it warm with ice cream and it was a piece of Heaven. I'm not kidding. If you like chocolate, you HAVE to try this cake. Really soon.1 chocolate cake mix8 oz. sour cream1 cup chocolate chips (I used a whole bag of Ghirardelli milk chocolate)1 cup water4 eggs3/4 cup vegetable oil1 package instant chocolate pudding mix (I used the small box)

*Spray crockpot with nonstick cooking spray. Mix all ingredients in a bowl by hand. Pour into crockpot. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.*I recommend having a lot of people on hand to eat this when you make it. If you have leftovers, they will haunt you and you will lose sleep thinking about them.

*Post edit: A few people have told us they made this and it burned in their crock-pot. So check the cake after 3-4 hours on low and see if it looks done all the way through.

I had been DYING to try this after reading her blog, so I made it on Sunday. It was awesome. My husband hates chocolate cake, but for some reason was digging this one. It's almost like lava cake, without the syrup.
